Enjoyed your "breakout show". I've been collecting coins BS (before slabbing). And I so appreciated your personality and earnestness . One of these days I'll get to Toledo and share anecdotes about objects de art we examine and accumulate, Evan Kopald
New to your channel. Appreciate you sharing knowledge. I’m not a business just a small collector. I read the comments on the grading services not grading fairly…kind of scared to send coins in now. Valuable money being spent to find out the grade isn’t accurate
Welcome to the channel and thank you for checking in! I think over all the grades are pretty accurate. However with that being said, there are plenty of people that make a good living buying slabbed coins and getting them to upgrade. Best of luck! ENN
Nice to see that you too are ´liberating´ coins from other agencies than PCGS. Well, we used to have the horrible Accugrade overgrading essentially all coins. Then also PCI, ICG, SGS... all #¤%%# (2-6 grades higher than PCGS). The NGC tends to grade coins somewhat higher than PCGS (my own experience too). It would seem that the grading services at CAC represent a second top-quality grading company. Lastly, I really appreciate ANACS for their recognition of the various double dies, attributions, and RPM services based on listings by Coneca, Variety Vista, etc. Haven´t tried cracking their holders to check grades with PCGS. This is mainly due to the PCGS not putting these varieties on their labels except for those FS varieties listed in their own price guide.
I agree on the recordings of the coins. It is very difficult to make out any of the details that you are talking about. Ben the Coin Geek does an excellent job with great pictures of his coins. Check out his videos.
You've got a cool personality, great voice, great microphone, good video equipment, and fun content. You just need a video to go viral. Your channel deserves a LOT more subscribers! By the way, what does the expression "moose of a coin" mean? Where does it come from?
Thank you for your kind words! It’s an expression I heard one time from my mentor in coins that was used to describe a super well struck 1894 O $1. It just stuck with me and it slips out every once in awhile when I am excited about a coin. Thanks ENN
They absolutely do and that's why NGC,PCGS will never really grow their business to its real potential. It actually hurts the whole coin industry, but they are to stupid to see it.
For Morgans...when you receive an "UNC Detail", is there a simple way to (give a GENERAL ESTIMATE) of the value? In other words, is is GENERALLY fair to say it's worth (half) the "UNC 60" value; or perhaps (a third)? I understand that it "depends" upon the coin...but I'm looking for just GENERAL RULES-OF-THUMB, maybe for Common dates, and then for Higher-end Morgans. Thanks for the video.
Remember buy the plastic first, then make sure there is a coin with it....There SUBJECTIVE GRADES are just as good as your subjective grades....Only thing certifying is good for is to make sure they are genuine....But I have 2 OMEGA $20 Saints they graded genuine a few decades ago!
@@enncoinscards4091 Afrer 30+ years of collectors being into thinking they are all STUPID and only the certifying bodies KNOW what is what, they continue to waste their money...Just WHAT are the fees and do you get the money back you paid for them to BODY BAG coind....This used to be a thinking man's hobby...this is why I collect major errors!
Moose of a coin....nasty looking to me!!! If it isn't a blazer doesn't make my collection. A cleaned coin IS the kiss of death. No cleaned coins in my collection!
This is a moose of a coin and just fyi all coin are just a miss away hate when people say just missed being next grade all type coins just miss the next grade
Oh no no no. Please don’t clean your coins. You will greatly reduce their numismatic value. And keep them from being graded in a “straight “ grade. Meaning they will have qualifiers such as cleaned on the label. Thanks! ENN
Interesting video. I have some non-fake fake slabs from China, i.e., they're like PCGS slabs, but there's no fake attribution, it's all in Chinese, and the coins are inexpensive Chinese coins. And, sure enough, the hologram is an external sticker! That's definitely the first thing I'll look for next time I get a slab.
If anyone who knows how to run a business ever gets into key positions at NGC or PCGS, the game will completely change. They are so poorly run, it nlows my mind sometimes.
You Did Not Win At All ! The Holder of PCGS Holder with Ears is also a Garbage One...Same as Fatty Holder of NGC with Four Ears.. the coin must be visible all the Perfectly Rim and edges.. Accugrade Holder without Ears are No Cheating and you can still count all the Reeded Dime in their Holder without Ears as example of 1995 Penny On Dime Planchet -ACG MINT.
